Nine strangers. Two countries. One unforgettable journey.
When a heritage restoration team assembles in Yogyakarta, no one anticipates how deeply the land-and each other-will change them. From Java's humid poetry to Istanbul's echoing calls to prayer, Borrowed Time is a slow-burn, ensemble journey about love, memory, identity, and the spaces between loss and rediscovery.

Closer To You [jikook]
In the quiet spaces between words and silences, they stumble, two fractured souls reaching through the dark. Burnt mornings, tangled nights, and the weight of all the things left unsaid. Love here isn't a gentle flame, it's a storm, fierce and fragile, pulling them closer even as it threatens to tear them apart. This is a story of scars and surrender, of fragile hope whispered beneath broken breaths, and the endless ache of wanting someone to stay .. even when it feels impossible. Closer. Always closer.Complete

Love Crossed
Some love stories don't need endings. They just bleed into the next chapter. Nine days. That's all they had. A wedding romance in India, over before it began. Three years later, fate drops them in the same Leipzig university, and everything has rotted sweet. She doesn't want his love anymore. She wants his hatred, and she's better at earning it than he expects. He wants her to fall for him again, not for love, but to watch it break her. Neither of them is telling the truth about what happened three years ago. Neither of them is entirely who they used to be. And the girl from those nine days? She isn't always the one answering to her name. Across two continents, through a buried scandal and the wreckage of two families, Love Crossed is a dark romance about the people we become to survive the people we've loved.Complete

As Author my request is "don't treat the book as a #textbook . It is purposefully a story book. " Though I shall be happy if people get interested about the adventurous science or thrilling history. The story is a science fiction and predictive modelling of future of the earth , drafted with a link to the history.
